Embassy Review : |
I had my medical the day before the interview. It was with Dr Slattery. My appointment was at 11:00am. He first examined me, then I had to go get a blood test and a chest X-ray (all in the same neighborhood). I had to come back at the Dr Slattery's around 3:30pm to pick up the sealed envelope for the embassy, and another envelope with my Y-Ray and my vaccinations record (They told me to travel with it and save it preciously).
The day after was the big day! I had to be at the embassy at 12:45am. I first went trhough the security and picked up a ticket with a number.
20 minutes later, I was called and the woman checked my passport, kept a part of my ticket and my embassy letter (the one with the appointment date).
An hour and around 45 minutes later, I was called by the same lady to check all my documents.
Then 20 minutes later, another woman called me... the interview officially started! It lasted around 5 minutes. She asked me just a few questions: "how did you meet your fiancé?", "when did you go to the US?", "What is your fiancé doing for living?", and "do you have some wedding plans yet?".
And then she prononced the magic words: "Congratulations! Your interview went well and you should receive your visa within 10 business days!"
A stressful step in the process, but definitely not the worst! |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
